Gruffalo update 07/07

It's been almost two weeks since I last posted - things have been hectic.
I abseiled down the Spinnaker Tower on Saturday to raise money for Parkinson's UK! It was a phenomenal experience and I am completely overwhelmed by how much I've managed to raise - over £400!!!

My stitching has been with me the whole time and I've made some good progress in my opinion:

I can't wait to iron out the creases. Never thought I'd say that sentence.

My favourite bit at the moment is the sandy path. The colours are lovely and I'm enjoying stitching the details. I've barely had to frog!

I've left the tree for now because it was just getting too fiddly. I'll probably leave it to the end!

ORT jar!!

I started an ORT jar today!

I've been keeping my ORTs (Old Raggedy Threads) in a compartment of my thread box for ages and never got round to getting a jar. But today was the day!

There's something strangely pretty about cutoffs. I like the idea of using them for stuffing but I definitely don't have enough for that yet!
